Description

Official PMA-261 H-53 Depot Mod Patch — Keeping the Heavy Lifters Flying

Every CH-53 that gets a new lease on life passes through PMA-261’s hands — and they take that responsibility seriously.

Program Management Activity 261 (PMA-261) manages the depot-level maintenance, modification, and sustainment of the H-53 heavy-lift helicopter family for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. Based at NAS Patuxent River, Maryland, PMA-261 oversees the critical work of keeping these massive aircraft mission-capable through structural upgrades, avionics modernization, and component overhaul programs. The H-53 series — from the CH-53E Super Stallion to the CH-53K King Stallion — is the backbone of Marine heavy-lift aviation, and PMA-261’s depot modification work ensures these aircraft can continue hauling heavy loads for decades to come.

Perfect For: PMA-261 engineers and program managers, H-53 maintainers, Pax River personnel, heavy-lift helicopter enthusiasts, and aviation depot professionals.

Rebuilt, reborn, and ready to lift.
